Lonely as the Moon by Audrey Matott

Lonely as the Moon

It must be possible
That someone else
Is as emotionally moved
By the bright full moon
Its gravity is free and heavy
Its magnitude takes my eyes and mind
To heaven
And blankets them with beauty
But with no warmth
It must be possible
That someone else’s heart beats
For the simple sight
Of a pure white circle
Stuck in the night
